I’m also hearing an unconfirmed report that he fell a second time once inside a room or office, but you know how the rumor mill is.
I’m a pacifist, so I’m inclined not to wish violence on anyone. But who am I to argue with the force of gravity?
… or is it the pull of Hell?I’m inclined
So are the stairs
no, you’re thinking of something more plane
That escalated quickly
Sorry, but all my sympathy is being used for the victims of this administration that McConnell could have prevented not once but twice.
McConnell is a big reason why we’re here to begin with. He broke the obstruction record during Obama’s administration.
However, Dems should be taking note of how exactly McConnell obstructed so effectively and start doing it themselves ASAP.
Agree, but one thing McConnell typically had, even as Minority Leader, was his people in line. I’m not sure the dems will ever be able to form a solid block as fragmented as we all are. Doesn’t meant they shouldn’t try though.
There were two impeachment votes, but he for damn sure could have prevented it at an absolute myriad of junctures between 2015 and now.
Yep. Though I set the bar low at two and he still failed.
McConnell had the following response to questions of his political aptitude:
Is there a video of this one, I like to save all of his strokes, falls, etc. its a hobby, like scrapbooking the demise of a festering piece of shit.
wake me up when they start falling out of windows.
Is there video? Can we set it to the Benny hill music?
Oh no! Anyway…
Oh my god! Are the stairs okay?!
I can already tell by the headline that my desired outcome did not happen.
Idk. Knowing that he knows he’s old, weak, frail, and vulnerable, and knowing that he’s probably in ongoing pain from toppling down stairs, makes me happier than him just straight up passing.
I’d prefer instant just because it would mean less time for him to be/do something horrible.
When you’re old, a bad fall can indicate the final 2 years of your life. Reduced mobility, depression, and injury sap what little remains of you. Despite hating him, I sympathize. There’s nothing to be gained from his current state. Were he still leading the country to its ruin, I’d be ecstatic, but now he’s just an old idiot potentially headed for hospice. Trump should take the stairs more often
40 fucking years of actively supporting the destruction of the United States and you feel pity for him?
God, when you ask yourself why this is happening - it’s this. Blind empathy has been the 1%s greatest tool. I will not feel an ounce of sympathy nor empathy for this fucking ghoul, I hope he lives every single moment of the rest of his life in agonizing pain - it still isn’t enough. 40 fucking years.
Reveling in others’ pain chips away at your conscience, for better or worse. I’ll revel when the violence is pragmatic, not when it’s popular to do so.
I’m not reveling in violence, I’m reveling in justice. He deserves to suffer for what he’s done.
I don’t see the distinction, personally. Shoot me a message when someone actively harming the world falls down a flight and I’ll laugh along. Watching an impotent politician becoming a cripple just reminds me of my own mortality, which is hardly constructive. Now, 10 more of them going down the steps is a message and a vibe. But this is just uninteresting to me.

“It’s reported that the senator landed on his back, and proceeded to roll back and forth for over 10min before his laughing constituents flipped him off his shell back onto his feet”
😆
The 60 minutes interview about his legacy was released a couple days ago. It’s crazy he was able to sit up for that long without a spine.
I just want a video of Moscow Mitch falling down a very long UP escalator.
In case anyone wonders what the rules on a replacement are:
https://www.politico.com/news/2024/03/28/kentucky-replace-mcconnell-beshear-00149543
“The governor must choose a nominee from a list of three names the outgoing senator’s party submits. Beshear would have to choose a Republican, should either Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell or Sen. Rand Paul’s seats become vacant.”
Pretty sure that state law was rammed through at warp speed once Beshear was elected but prior to him taking office.
I can only imagine it takes these ancient relics 10-15 minutes to go up and down stairs. The stairs aren’t the problem either.
Right after he spoke up against trump and voted against hegseth? Weird. 🤔
MTG probably pushed him.
Why would someone playing Magic the gathering pay either one light/dark mana to use push when they could use Fatal push instead, which is a solid equalizer to being on the draw against aggro/mana dorks.
Also a good option on the play, but most decks would proactively cast thoughtseize (assuming both in hand)
